A new popular initiative is giving a boost to negotiations between the EU and Switzerland.

An alliance of pro-European organizations wants to anchor active European cooperation in the constitution and thus obtain a fundamental EU decision from the people and the cantons. The signature collection for the Europe initiative started on Tuesday.

The federal popular initiative “For a strong Switzerland in Europe (Europe Initiative)” wants to create a new constitutional article for active European integration.

If the people and the cantons vote yes, the Federal Council should conclude the necessary contracts with the EU “without delay”. After the negotiations, he would have to submit the result to parliament for approval within a year.

Wind at the back for ongoing negotiations

The so-called European Alliance includes political actors such as Operation Libero, the Greens, the European Movement Switzerland, the Association of Swiss Student Unions and the association La Suisse en Europe.

It wants to give the ongoing negotiations with the EU a boost, it said in a statement. (SDA)
